Sour bears
Product Insights
Sour bears are gummy bear candies marketed as sour and belong to the sugary snacks family (pnns_groups: Sugary snacks, Sweets). Per 100 g they contain 52 g of sugars (high), 0.5 g of fat (low), 0.18 g of salt (low), 5.4 g of protein and provide 341 kcal, resulting in a Nutri‑Score of E and a NOVA 4 ultra‑processed classification. While the low fat and salt content are modest positives, the very high sugar and added‑sugar levels, four food additives (E330, E296, E350i, E428) and the presence of gelatin make it non‑vegan and nutritionally concerning.
